Patent number: 11847680Abstract: Techniques are described herein for presenting attribute variations (differing attribute values) of an item at a network page. A request for the network page associated with an item of an electronic catalog can be received. In response to the request, the network page can be presented. The content and/or format of the network page can be predefined by an interface specification associated with the item and/or item category for the item. The network page may include a first area that includes an expanded view in which one or more variations of the first attribute are depicted and any suitable number of collapsed views in which one or more variations associated with a respective attribute are hidden from view. The areas of the network page may be dynamically expanded and collapsed to enable selection of various attribute values which may then be used to update the network page.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2021Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Maria Joseph Daniel Victor, Karthik Srinivasan, Kousik Kumar Gopalan, Mayank Thakur, Ryan LaBoube

Patent number: 11849183Abstract: A system and method to tag portions of a video with an access-control-list (ACL) for those periods of time (e.g., video segments, series of video frames, etc.) within a video that require elevated permission to view or access is provided. At playback time, the access-control-list is dynamically enforced in real-time to ensure that a user viewing or editing the video has permissions to view upcoming portions of the video. When a user has insufficient permission to view a portion of the video, a filler frame, blurred content or blank frame is displayed in the place of the actual video content. Audio may also be muted or beeped out during the periods of the video for which there is insufficient permissions.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2021Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: VBrick Systems, Inc.Inventor: Olivier Meyer

Patent number: 11847806Abstract: Scene text information extraction of desired text information from an image can be performed and managed. An information management component (IMC) can determine an anchor word based on analysis of an image. To facilitate determining desired text information in the image, IMC can re-orient the image to zero or substantially zero degrees if it determines that the orientation is skewed. IMC can utilize a neural network to determine and apply bounding boxes to text strings in the image. Using a rules-based approach or machine learning techniques, employing a trained machine learning component, IMC can utilize the anchor word along with inline grouping of textual information in the image, deep text recognition analysis, or bounding box prediction to determine or predict the desired text information in the image. IMC can facilitate presenting the desired text information, anchor word, or other information obtained from the image in an editable format.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2021Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: DELL PRODUCTS, L.P.Inventor: Lee Daniel Saeugling
